Re: Masked

Can this get rejected yet? We all get the joke.

I like the antique styling of the cats but isn't this more then 6 colors?
red,blue,green, yellow,white, plum and the greyish linework?

re: usual suspects

My guess:

sailor hat = sea

key hole = key

sea + key = seki?

Maybe a bottle of this:



But that goes in the shower, so maybe it's something else. :-)

It should show up just fine. It's a near black charcoal color so it should show up as well as black would without the striking contrast.

The green is really yellow and blue side by side. ;-)

Clever, but then the cat is mysterious. BootsBoots works, I guess, but then I don't understand the use of the cat head.

Re: Yes... ANOTHER clue shirt. [resub cause I'm dumb]

I don't think I'd buy it, but this is an excellent design. Great concept, great characters, great artwork.

Yeah, I was thinking seki for the keyhole as well and bootsboots for the cat (puss in boots and whatnot). Did anyone figure out the lips because that makes no sense to me?

No mystery here...GMV

I would buy! This is great.

Drakxxx wrote:The design is really nice, and when compared to the concept of the one I made, there like before and afters as someone mentioned. I'm honored to have this design somewhat based off my own.

I agree. It's very draxxxy but still maintains enough of the original artist to stand out as more than just an imitation.

eHalcyon wrote:It's snowy - has to be white. When there's a reason for it, white is perfectly fine.

Critique: the camera isn't pointing at the other yeti.

Oh, yes--please fix that! Other than that, I love this shirt!

And please, don't put it on navy. A color shirt would be nice, but not navy. And I like white just fine.

Re: The Usual Suspects

I have not played this game in forever. I was not expecting this when I clicked on the thumbnail. Good work.

Can you quantify why you wouldn't? Just so I can try to learn? :-)

eHalcyon wrote:Thumbnail has no gradients. Shirt comp does though, but that may not be cause for rejection. Woot is remarkably inconsistent on that one. Recently, it appears that gradients in comps is OK.

Well, it should be, so long as the gradient isn't in the design on the shirt.

What are you talking about? Her arms are kind of blacking it but if it was any bigger it would be grotesque not to mention not pg-13.

I think it's a pucker.

Re: ...with the revolver.

The version of Clue I remember had this shape pieces that were used to move around the board.

Re: What the heck is in a hotdog?

Thanks everyone!

No, not bigger. I think it just fades into the shirt too soon. It should be illustrated more, the lines made longer to show more of the chest that's in shadow. Make sense? Oh--and I also mean the PIRATE chest. Just in case there was some confusion about that.

that's the correct resub.

I like it a lot. And you can delete this one if you click the little red x by it.

Oh no, you're doing everything right. It's just not something for me. For one thing, I'm not big on Clue.

As I said, I think it is an excellent design. If I had a friend who liked Clue (maybe I do and I just don't know it ) I would definitely pick one up as a gift.

Come on, you forgot to mention that the Threadless version is way better. Seriously, I kinda want that shirt now. Not this one though.

My mistake. I assumed you were talking about the (*wink*) PIRATE'S chest.

so then mac users cant draw apples? my keyboard has buttons for play, stop, etc, i cant draw a square or a triangle? no circle because of O? i guess no diagonal lines either because of slash and blackslash either

Actually, no. I worked at a bookstore for 2-3 years and i was always about to pick one up but then I'd pick another author instead. Why do you ask?

It's the length of the fingers and lack of knuckles, isn't it? It looks like a foot with freakishly long toes.

I wonder why! XD

Hahaha, I get it!

I guess so. It's not my rule. It's woot's rule.

lol fair enough. :-)

Re: The Usual Suspects

The thumbnail reminds me of "Weekend at Bernies"

re: mystery meat

Being a lunch lady(sad but true) I MUST have this shirt!!

godslinger wrote:I guess so. It's not my rule. It's woot's rule.

Apples are fine. The "anything on a keyboard" thing is just a simple way of explaining the rule to newbies who may not understand what constitutes "text". It's not a perfect description and not even all-encompassing. For example, your keyboard probably doesn't have Chinese characters on it, but they count as text as well. The main reason people use the "on a keyboard" explanation is because a lot of people interpret "text" as "words" or something with semantic meaning. With Woot, single characters count as "text".

Diagonal lines would be fine. A line is a line. For stuff like that, as long as it's not textual (i.e. meant to be a character), then it's OK. For example, if you were to draw an ambulance in a no-text derby, you could put a cross on it. A cross isn't the same as a plus sign. If you were to draw a rebus and put a plus sign in, it would be rejected. Similarly, you can use x-eyes (i.e. to indicate a dead cartoon character) without fear, since it's very clearly a non-text usage.

New entrants may have difficulty figuring out what Woot counts as text or not, but we get a feel for it with time.

He wrote a book that included bug-eyed monsters, and my mental image of them matches your drawing.
